My hand reached down for the radio I held it up to my ear The beads of sweat gathered On my head and trickled down
Out in the park children were playing Though it was dark, the sky glowed red People were stunned, everyone's waiting Nobody knew why, but they know it now
The newsman said most of London's gone We saw the cloud rise from here An ice cream van with it's music On goes round and round
Out in the park children were playing Though it was dark the sky glowed red People were stunned, everyone's waiting Nobody knew why, but they know it now
Down in their bunkers under the sea Men pressing buttons don't care about me
There's lots of sand on the cellar floor We went down there for the night The barricades that my brother made Keeps out the light
Out in the park children were playing Though it was dark the sky glowed red People were stunned, everyone's waiting Nobody knew why, but they know it now
Down in their bunkers under the sea Men pressing buttons don't care about me
